I mean, if you're a Jewish American, and want some connection to Jewish religious and cultural traditions, and don't want your kids to be the only ones in school who know about the High Holy Days, it makes sense to move near a visible community.

Even in the NYC metro, where Jews are practically everywhere, there are a number of desirable communities with virtually no Jews, even in 2021. Garden City, Bronxville, Ridgewood, Summit, New Canaan and Weston have very few Jews. Most of backcountry CT and NJ horse country are still overwhelmingly WASP/Catholic. Less common in Westchester, LI and inner NJ suburbs, though.
